Tasting Notes
This one explodes from the glass with notes of dark fruit, savory spices, and a hint of oak. On the palate, you get a sense of place with the typical spicy notes indicative of the higher elevation cabernets, with tannins that are neatly integrated for its young age.
The wine saw a significant portion of new French oak and had a nice rest in the bottle before its release. This will age gracefully for the next decade+ and at this price, you're going to want to stock up!
Best paired with: Grilled meats or vegetables, hard cheese, and even heavier fish dishes
The Story
This is another casualty of unexpected restaurant closures in 2020. This wine was destined for high-end East Coast restaurants, but the winery made a quick pivot and sold the cases to us for a song!

2016 Russian River Syrah
-
This wine is everything that Syrah should be - bold without being jammy. On the nose, concentrated blackberries. The big fruit is structured with medium tannins and hints of bacon fat and white pepper on the finish.
Best paired with: Grilled meats & vegetables (lamb is the classic pairing), beef stew, comfort food and a cool fall evening.
2016 Sonoma Coast Pinot Noir
-
On the nose, dark red fruit and hillside florals explode from the glass. This full-bodied pinot boasts blackcurrants, plum, vanilla and a touch of black pepper on the finish. The finish is impressively long – a fantastic wine!
Best paired with: Friends who like to drink exceptional red wine and anything from cool nights & campfires to warm summer sunsets by the lake. Veggies-on-the-grill, shrimp-and-grits, hamburgers, or even your local butcher’s best cut of filet mignon, this wine has the ability to complement nearly anything you care to cook Monday-Sunday. It has a foundation that will make it a much-loved favorite and the complexity that will impress even your most diehard Cabernet-loving friends.
2018 Proprietary Red Blend
-
Blackberry and peppercorn on the tongue. Leather and tobacco on the nose. This wine pairs well with fireplaces, oversize steaks, and men with amazing beards. Although, none of the above is required to enjoy this proprietary blend.
Peppery, but still smooth on the tongue. This blend is high in tannins and big in body, so you’ll want to decant before enjoying!
